the men who serve under him. Or is he?

resigned to the life of a military wife.  Makes the best of her surroundings
and the people in it.

recently assigned to the military base.  Navy. From Alabama.  A little too
cocksure.



Gunney Sergeant:  Forceful.  Witty.  Looks older than he really is, which is
probably late-twenties.
